A great product!

I'm surprised! I was looking for a green cream shadow base and saw this at Target. I was a tad skeptical, as I'm not a big fan of lower-end cosmetics. But this stuff is great! The color worked perfectly for the look I had in mind. And it doesn't crease on me (but I primed). I have oily skin and with many products creasing can be a problem even with primer. I think I'll get more Color Tattoos! Hopefully they'll come out with more colors too!

Cute and Convenient. LOVE!

I bought theMaybelline Color Tattoo in Pomegranite Punk. I am loving it. It doesn't budge and has great pigmentation. It's perfect for busy days in which you need to rush out the door. It's easy to apply and it still looks great!
If you're into the MAC Paint Pots, this product is really something to check out. Both products have the awesome creamy texture that's really easy to use and both last all day. I think that the biggest differences are the color selection and, most definitely, the price tag. The Maybelline has both neutral and really colorful shades to choose from, while the MAC sticks with very neutral colors. For ever Paint Pot you Purchase, you can get three of these Maybelline shadows.
Overall, this is an awesome product, and the price makes it an absolute steal! I'm totally eyeing the Tough as Taupe. Hopefully I'll add it to my collection really soon!

not 24 wear

hello ladies! we obviously all know this product and since you almost all love it i guess i have to be one th unlikiest girls ever since they don't last on me... i have extremely oily eyes and without a primer they last for 3 hours and i don't like that ... i thought they would do a better job...on the other hand i have to admit that when i use them with a primer or a a base they work well..

Awesome!

These eyeshadows are amazing quality for an affordable drugstore product! The pigmentation is great, they are very creamy and smooth. I would definitely compare these to MAC paint pots, just at a much lower cost! I love to use these as a base for my eyeshadow. They do not crease on my eyelids, they last the entire day and they make your shadow much more vibrant. These are an A+ product in my book and I would love to see more Matte shades!

Long lasting!

Amazingly pigmented, incredibly blend-able and build-able, and LONG LASTING!
They make shadows 10x more pigmented! I swatched them on my arm, the right has shadows on top of the Color Tattoos and the left is shadows with no base after about 30 minutes. The left faded sooo much while the right didn't budge!

They're okay

These shadows are definitely unique, but I do find some problems with them.
Application can be patchy and uneven at times. When I go to apply this, sometimes the top of the product will be hard, making it hard to get the creamy, gel consistency it's supposed to be. I always make sure to close them tightly too, but still find the same thing. Also, the product can kind of build up on my finger, and not transfer onto my lid evenly. It can be difficult to get the product from your finger onto your lid.
Despite these issues, these still make wonderful bases. Even with the uneven application, they're great for adding another dimension to the eyeshadow you apply over them. I have no problems with creasing either.
These are a so-so product. I like the ones I own, but I'm not running out to buy them all. I don't reach for them as often as I'd like to because they can take some times to work with.

USe as a base

I use this as a coloured base to hold on my eyeshadow and omg its the best!!!! st. patty's day i go out clubbing and its hot and full of poeple my eye makeup didnt move and i was dancing from 9pm to 3 am !!! im scared to know what im putting on my eye make it stick so well

I <3 this product. I am from the UK so the shades have different names over here it is called on and on bronze so not too different but I thought I'd just let you guys know. Anyways lets get on to the review I really did love this product and they only recently came out in the UK so with all the hype online in the US I was really excited on trying these products because I had heard great things about them, they retail for £4.99 in boots and superdrug here in the UK so quite cheap for and eyeshadow. I really like the shade I picked as it just a natural colour to wear on your eyes for the summer, you can wear it alone or as a base and the colour is very buildable, it doesn't crease at all! My personal favourite way to apply it is by taking an ecotools eyeshadow brush and loading it up onto the brush and then patting it onto my eye, but as I have been using this method I have found that I have been using a little too much on the brush so with this product you only need a little because it goes a LONG way. I also think this eyeshadow would be great as an eyeliner with maybe one of the other colours underneath, I do also have tenacious teal which in the UK is called turquoise forever, and I think that would make a great liner more then anything else but I do think it would maybe do okay for a light wash of colour on the lids if you blend it out a little. But overall I'd say these were a great product and they don't crease, a dream to apply and they also remove really easily with a plain ordinary makeup wipe I love these and I definately think that they were worth the hype

Love it

This product is really good. I was pleasantly surprised at how well it worked. Some cream/gel shadows I've tried don't work very well. This one, however, did an awesome job. It only creases a little after about 4 hours. I also wore it for 14 hrs (to see how long it would last) and the clour only faded a little. I defiantly recommend it, and plan to buy more. :)

Best Used As A Base

I have 2 of the Maybelline Eye Studio Color Tattoo Pots. I have tried to use them alone as well as with other products. I personally use them as a base reason being they are not as pigmented as I would like them to be. Being that they aren't very pigmented using them as a base allows the eyeshaow to stick and have less creasing. They go on smooth witch I love. They do however last a while if used for a base alone the color does tend to fade after a while. All in all this is a good product if you are looking for a cheap colored base.
